Snacks versus weight loss

by Amanda MacMillan

want to lose weight. But according to recent research by the USDA, our
snacking habits are adding too many calories and too few nutrients to
our diets. It doesn't have to be this way, says Susan Bowerman, RD,
assistant director of the UCLA Center for Human Nutrition. "When done
right, (snacking) keeps your energy levels up and gives
you more opportunities to get in all your nutritional needs."
